Not sure what to say?

Dear Harriet and family,

This note of sympathy is from your long lost cousin "Sister Kantor" from Miami, FL. Received the article in the paper from another cousin in Mass. Lee was such a wonderful person and to have been married so many years. I still remember the wedding on June 30th.

Would love to speak to you and bring you up to date on the Florida families.

My deepest sympathy to you and your wonderful family.

I have fond remembrances of working with Leon at Kaplan & Fox, and later at Beacon Hill. He was respected and admired by many and will be missed. John Brennen

Dear John and Gail,
I am so sorry for your loss. From what I read in the tribute Leon's life on earth touched so many and he will be sorely missed.
Wishing your family peaceful thoughts and joyful memories.

Kaplan and Carpenter Families,

Please accept my sincerest condolences on the passing of Pop. He was a kind and genuine man who always had a friendly word or two for me at the various family get-togethers, and I always appreciated that. I know he meant the world to all of you, just as all of you meant the world to him. I know that you'll keep his memory close to your hearts.

I'm sorry I wasn't able to attend the service; I would have liked to pay my respects.

Best...

I extend my condolences to the Kaplan family. Not having Leon around is a great loss. I first met Leon in October of 1986 and has always been a part of my life. Whenever he visted the showroom he would make special effort to see me. Leon you are greatly missed.

I remember Mr. Kaplan as a kind man who was generous with his knowledge. I am sure that he mentored countless people. He was a gentleman and a businessman and...

To the Kaplan Family,
I want to extend my sympathies to the entire Kaplan family. Many fond memories of the old days of Kaplan and Fox came to me today as I learned of Leon's passing. He and I talked regularly as my company, Kindel Furniture, was a supplier for the showroom. I learned a great deal from him about the furniture business. He was a pro and a gentleman.
In the many years that I have been in the furniture business I will always remember Leon's visit to Grand Rapids to tour...

To the Kaplan family,
I was so sorry to hear of your loss. The thoughts of many are with you at this time of sorrow. My sincere condolences.

John,
Our thoughts are with you and your family at this time.
